SignUp Calendar Page URL Variables

URL variables can be appended to your calendar link to specify certain settings.

If your event calendar is at the URL http://ues.evanced.info/signup/calendar, we’ll add URL variables like so:

http://ues.evanced.info/signup/calendar?df=list&nd=30&kw=test

For the first variable you want to add, you need to start with a question mark. For every other variable, you start with an ampersand. It’s pretty easy, and lets you build custom links!

Note: prior to the August 2016 release of SignUp, URLs used the format http://ues.evanced.info/signup/eventcalendar.aspx. Those URLs will redirect to the new format, but we encourage you to update your links to reflect the new format instead of relying on the redirects.

These are the variables we currently use:

Display Format - df=

list, week, or calendar

Number of Days (also works with mobile "/msignup/events?") - nd=

30 - or any integer value
overrides "df=calendar" switch and forces list view

Keyword (also works with mobile "/msignup/events?") - kw=

any single word or phrase - keyword searches on Description, Title, and Presenter if a specific presenter is not specified.

Date Start (also works with mobile "/msignup/events?") - ds=

A date value in YYYY/MM/DD format.
on list view, the events shown start at this date.
on the calendar view, the entire month passed is displayed.

Date End (also works with mobile "/msignup/events?") - de=

A date value in YYYY/MM/DD format.
on list view, the events shown start at this date.
this doesn’t do anything on the calendar view.

any name, first, last, or combined, of the desired presenter.

Please note that Evanced’s support is limited to the functionality of the SignUp Calendar Page URL Variables and the way it looks independently. Evanced does not provide support for implementing the URL Variables on your site, nor does it provide support for URL Variables after installation on your site.
